What's "to do" radical?  If you wanted to breed the dogs you would  breed 
to a clear IF we are at a point where we trust the test. <Our own  Red Book 
pointed out inconsistencies, so please spare me the 100s of  e-mails>. The 
incidence of DM is less than 7% according to everything I  see and even then 
we now know that there is a very high incidence of  misdiagnosis because many 
companion owners simply aren't going to do an MRI or  myleogram (sp?) to 
rule out other causes if symptoms that may look like  DM. Statistically bloat 
is 16% BTW.  Not saying I want either for  sure, but don't throw out the 
baby....

tested again.  Not test is totally infallible and there may have been  
'other' problems at the facility that reads the  results.

Subject: [  SHOWGSD-L ] DM Carriers

I sent in 4 cheek swabs to the OFA for the DM  tests--ALL came back as
carriers.  I was disappointed, to say the  least.  3 are bitches and 1
is a male--all different bloodlines.   How would you feel if this
happened to you?  What would you do, if  anything?  I'm very interested
in hearing people's heartfelt  opinions.
